Aussie Courts Show the way to deal with Sharia in Sri Lanka.Posted on February 28th, 2013

Walter Rajaratne in Sydney.

Four Islamic men in Sydney were found guilty by the courts for brutally whipping another Muslim man 40 times with an electrical cord as “punishment” under Islamic Sharia law for drinking alcohol. The judge who found the four offenders guilty at Sydney law courts today postponed sentencing for a future date.

Halal, Haram, Sharia, Fatwa et al, disseminated from Koran to the Sri Lankan vocabulary in the recent past, gathering momentum by day. The sad irony here is that a section of the unscrupulous Sinhala Buddhist ruling party bigwigs are inadvertently aiding and abetting this menace to the chagrin of Arya Sinhala civilisation that stood the test of time for a perpetual two millennia and nurtured the unequivocally nonviolent lifestyle anywhere under the sun. The serene philosophy preached by The Lord Buddha for the intellectual to follow and seek refuge in its theme as ultimate happiness is sans any repugnant words such as Holy War, Crusades, Armageddon that propagate hate and destruction.

We paid a three decade long terrible price for the decisions of rogue politicians. If it’s one country the guiding Principe should be one set of rules to all. Nip in the bud it says. Hence, go no further, make no mistake. If in doubt read the land mark verdict by the independent judiciary of Australian legal system.

Muslims tried to get their own way in Australia and the Muslims were stopped. Extremist Muslims have been having their own way in Lanka for a long time. It is very visible from the large number of Mosques that have sprung up all over Lanka. All this Halal and Sharia business is the stat of a process for Muslim domination.People wearing the ‘goni billa’ dress are also so common at times I wonder if we are in an Arab country. When the French government banned the ‘goni billa’ dress the Buddhist govt. said they will fund the goni billa dress. Do the Sinhala Buddhist know what happened to Nalanda Buddhists, for them to encourage extremists ?How stupid can it be. ? Sinhala Buddhists will sleep until the last Buddhist is killed or converted to Muslim.
The problem is the Buddhism practiced in the silk route and in Sri Lanka, which promote giving up desires and seeking extinction. This is a dangerous and a very foolish idea in a highly competitive dangerous world. With such a dangerous belief, it is not surprising that Buddhists in the silk route were wiped out. We should maximise desire to achieve maximum and aim for survival and winning rather than aim for extinction. My predictions are coming true. India and China that dumped Buddhism made tremendous progress within a short time. Instead of dumping Buddism, we can follow Japanese Buddhism. Just dump the crazy, foolish idea of giving up desires and stop aiming for extinction. It is the mind that has to be conditioned for survival and winning. Muslim mind virus is stronger than the Buddhist mind virus. There are people like Shelton G that try to lead us astray. It is not surprising that enemies of the Sinhala people promote Buddhism so that we will be passive, lethargic, lazy, third rate people giving up desires and seeking extinction. Muslims may then not need to use their swords, as we ourselves may go for extinction on our own will. – What a bunch of people !

The political face of the planet changes constantly. How many Christians live in the birth place of Christ today (i.e. the Middle East)? Very few, the Middle East is almost entirely Muslim.

Had someone said that Christianity was a “weak religion incapable of defending itself” (Jesus Christ did say to offer your other cheek to someone who slaps you) then there would have had nothing worth defending. Had the Muslims had petrodollars back then, there would be plenty of people like Ben Silva preaching this anyway! The result, no crusades and the whole of Europe would have ended up Muslim. But we all know that it wasn’t the case.

We all know how that Buddhism is the life blood of the Sinhalese people. We have seen throughout history Kings like Dutugemunu, Walgamba fighting to protect Buddhism. Buddhism by all means discourages violence but does not forbid self defense. We all know that the LTTE was defeated by a majority Sinhalese Buddhist military (no disrespect to the countless non-Buddhists who fought against the LTTE). Buddhist monks always give blessings to those who defend our country!

Also the Chinese don’t have fourth floors in their buildings, why? because the word for four in Mandarin is similar to the word for death! Lets not talk about India because even at this age they drink sewage (a.k.a water of the Ganges, full of corpses!). Chinese and Indian economic progress is mainly due to cheap labor and investing in the right technology. They did so while being deeply religious!

These are some of the things Ben Silva’s highly selective memory doesn’t mention!

So lets get our priorities right. No one bothered about philosophical issues when fighting the LTTE. Buddhist monks went to the front lines to provide blessings to our soldiers. Now we have a priority to defeat Jihadis in Sri Lanka.

We should not be surprised about the sudden emergence of characters like Ben Silva when Buddhists are rallying against Jihadis.

During the time o the LTTE there were those who preached to us that as Buddhists we should be non-violent. Ben Silvas are the other side of the coin. Either way they help the enemy…………luckily we didn’t bother about such people and defeated the murderous LTTE with the full blessings of Buddhism!

mjaya, Neither Sinhalese nor Sri Lanka owns Buddhism. There are several versions of Buddhism and these versions differ widely. Not all sinhalese blindly follow Indian myths. If you want to give up desires and be no body, it is upto you. Again if you want to aim for extinction you may do so. If you follow Allah ypu may get virgins and if you follow Buddha, you may get repeat performance of your life in rebirth. The choice is upto you. As for me I do not believe in any myth.

DEVOLOPING DESIRE IS VERY PROFITABLE FOR BUSINESS COUNTRIES. THAT IS WHY THEY DONT LIKE BUDDHISM WHICH FOLLOW A MIDDLE PATH. THERE ARE WESTERN AGENTS TRYING TO MISLEAD BUDDHISTS DESCRIBING THAT NIRVANA IS A MYTH.

WE HAVE BEEN BUDDHISTS FOR MORE THAN 2600 YEARS AND ORDINARY BUDDHISTS KNEW WHEN TO FIGHT AND HOW TO FIGHT AND ALSO HOW TO FORGIVE.

BEN SILVA MAY BE A MAHAYANA BUDDHIST. THIS IS ANOTHER TACTIC , FIRST CHANGETHERAVADA TO MAHAYANA AND THEN TO HINDUISM. AFTER SOMTIME THEY BECOME COLONIAL PARASITES.

FROM J.R JAYAWARDANA ALLMOST ALL THE U.N.P ERS WERE TRYING THEIR BEST TO DO THIS OPEN ECONOMY WAS INTRODUCED FOR THIS REASON

SINHALA BUDDHISTS HAVE BEEN FIGHTING AHAINST ENEMIES FROM DUTUGEMUNU PERIOD EVEN WHILE BELIEVING TH AT THE BEST THING IS TO GIVEUP DESIRE THE NUMBER ONE ENEMY OF LIVING BEINGS

IN THE RECENT PAST ANAGARIKA DHARMAPALA REMINDED US WHO WE ARE. JATHIKA CHINTHANAYA DEFEATED U.N.P COLONIAL PARASITES AND WE DESTROYED TERRORISTS STILL WE ARE THERAVADA BUDDHISTS . IT IS NOT A BARICADE FOR WORLDLY FREEDOM.

HOW DO U BELIEVE UNFELT AND UNSEEN GRAVITY IF NIRVANA IS A MYTH? IS THAT NEWTON IS YOUR GOD?
PEOPLE HAVE SEEN APPLES FALLING BUT NO BODY HAS FELT OR SEEN GRAVITY BUT STILL READY TO BELIEVE THE “”myth””
WHO DO U BELIEVE NEWTON OR EAINSTEIN?

Scientists do not believe things. They accept theories supported by evidence. Scientists encourage peers to critically analyse theories so that errors and omissions, limitations could be found. Theories become more robust after critical examination. Even Newtons assumption of absolute space was found to be wrong. Religions, including Buddhism appear to depend on blind faith. There is no evidence for rebirth, Nirvana or sansare. Some ideas in Buddhism in the silk route as well as in Sri Lanka, promoting giving up desires and to seek Nirvana, to escape ‘dUKKE’ is outright dangerous and foolish as it will make the believers less competitive and will not have the mindset for self preservation or winning. The world is full of challenges and only the fittest will survive. If we are not fit enough, just as we lost the North, East, Hill country and the Capital Colombo, we will lose rest of the living space. Time to dump questionable Indian passive thinking, if we want to survive. This passive Indian thinking has been dumped by Indians after Nalanda debacle, but we are still hanging on to it.Indians and the Chinese are doing very well after dumping passive Buddhism. Following Japanese Buddhism is far safer and better. In any case one can follow the precepts, as OI do, call myself a Buddhist. I do not have to believe in dangerous myths. In any case, there are many different versions of Buddhism in the world and no one owns Buddhism. Some Tibetian monks even marry.How many Buddhists in Lanka know about Nalanda Buddhists and what happened to Maldive Buddhist monks. If we are not careful, the same thing will happen to us.

A genuine patriot will not worry about philosophical issues but will take the sword (metaphorically speaking) and get into action.

Those who are with the enemy will either say that Buddhists should be non-violent (and pave way for a slaughter) or attack the core of the culture the Sinhalese are seeking to defend using fallacies. Out of these fallacies the biggest is that Sinhalese-Buddhists are passive when the overwhelmingly Sinhalese-Buddhist military defeated the LTTE! Now how “passive” is that?

Its pretty obvious that our enemies have been hit hard by the infamous “boycott”. So its no surprise that they using their petrodollars to hire everyone to help!
